Guns Listing ID: 707119



The Remington Model 742 Carbine is a semi-automatic centerfire rifle produced by the Remington Arms Company and was designed to provide hunters with a fast-handling, reliable firearm for hunting medium to large game. Introduced as a shorter version of the Model 742 Woodsmaster, the carbine features a reduced barrel length that improves maneuverability in dense woods and brush while maintaining the accuracy and dependability expected from the Model 742 platform. Chambered in popular hunting calibers such as .308 Winchester and .30-06 Springfield, the rifle became a popular choice among deer hunters throughout North America.

The Model 742 Carbine operates using a gas-operated semi-automatic action that reduces felt recoil and allows for quick follow-up shots. It utilizes a detachable box magazine, making loading and unloading simple and efficient in the field. The rifle is typically equipped with a hardwood stock, checkered grip surfaces, and open sights, while many examples are drilled and tapped to accommodate optical scopes for improved accuracy at longer distances.

Known for its comfortable handling and classic sporting appearance, the Model 742 Carbine was designed to perform reliably in a variety of hunting environments. Its shorter overall length makes it especially well suited for hunting in heavily wooded terrain where quick target acquisition and ease of movement are important. Although production of the Model 742 ended in 1980 and was later succeeded by the Model 7400, the rifle remains a respected firearm among hunters and collectors. The Remington Model 742 Carbine continues to be appreciated for its dependable performance, practical design, and lasting contribution to the history of American sporting rifles.
